Discover Programs

In collaboration with the Chester County Intermediate Unit, we offer Discover Programs for teens and young adults with an Individualized Education Program who require work experience.

Discover a World of Opportunity

Regardless of age or gender, the garden is a place of beauty, enchantment and—for participants in the Discover Program—opportunity. A collaboration between Longwood and the Chester County Intermediate Unit, the Discover Program provides teens and young adults between the ages of 16 and 21 who have an Individualized Education Program with the opportunity to gain valuable work experience.

The work experience takes place as a group and varies in length and intensity depending upon the participants’ abilities. The primary goal of this program is to prepare these individuals for success in the workplace and for independent living.
